116. The Curtailment of Wind Generation

In this episode we’re looking at a controversial and complex topic –the curtailment of wind generation. Wind curtailment is when the output of wind plants is reduced to below its maximum generation capacity. This has been happening for many years, but with net zero targets and dynamic changing energy systems, it’s increasingly getting attention. As usual host Jon Slowe is taking a well-earned holiday, Charmaine Coutinho is talking with two Delta-EE colleagues - Jon Ferris, Head of Flexibility and Storage, and Chris Matson, Partner at LCP Energy.
